[QUOTE="Winnie53, post: 1467350, member: 160246"] Eating low carb helps. Intermittent fasting does too - (I personal eat all three meals in a 10 to 12 hour window). That said, 27 months after starting the low carb ketogenic diet, glucose levels improved significantly during the first 4 weeks, but then plateaued and continued to improve very gradually from that point forward. With regular walking, I can now knock a high glucose level back down in 20 minutes. All that said, while my health is significantly improved, I still have severe insulin resistance. If I exceed my carb limit in a meal, my glucose levels can hit 200 mg/dl (11.1 mmol/l) or higher. I have not read the other topic where forum members addressed some of your questions and concerns, so don't know your comfort level with including healthy fats with all meals. I had a lot of concerns about that initially, so did a lot of reading. The low carb diet doesn't work well if you're eating low fat too. Do you have concerns about including healthy fats with all your meals? [/QUOTE]
